its week12 and most of my coursemates feel like they're in hell.
i've just finished with my own fair share of workload and taking a step back and looking at the entire present situation at hand, makes me laugh.
no, i'm not mad. laughing to oneself doesn't automatically make me a nutcase. not yet, anyway.
but i look and ponder at where I am today. i'm finishing up with year 2, never thought i'd last this long. looking back on my days in year 1, it's a laugh, really, to see how much everything has changed. i've learnt how to take things as they go, not wanting to say or do much, but just doing my own fair share, ensuring that everything falls into place.
one thing i've learnt in these two years and not for the past 16 years before was that, there is so much more to life than just school and studying. there's work, there's the nightlife. and there's the fair share of politics that is so fun to participate in once in awhile. my third aunt was just saying to me that no matter how excellent you do in school or how successful you are in life, if you fail as a person, you fail entirely. and how true is that?
so what if you manage to do well in school but you have such poor interpersonal skills that no one likes working with you? so what if you manage to secure the best job in everybody's eyes but all you want to do is something else entirely different?
at the end of the day when the night falls and you are getting ready to get into bed, you think about the day's details and what you have been through. did you enjoy your day? could you imagine living another day, like this one? i firmly believe that enjoying what you do, enjoying your life is so much more important, so much more fulfilling than basically doing just what's excellent, what's perfect.
never mind how society looks at you because they don't have to live with any decision except the ones they make for themselves but you are the one who has to live with the choices you make. could you live with the choice you make? deep down inside, are you happy? i think that's a very important question everyone fails to answer nowadays. or rather, they might be trying to avoid to answer. sit down with a cup of tea and think: are you happy?
just because the masses do it, doesn't make it right.
i learnt alot about the media scene today in tvprod class and how everything in the industry works. it might just surprise you that the happiest people are, in fact, the ones we pity the most.
